David Fincher has admitted that he does not want to make a sequel to 1995 thriller Se7en.

The movie, starring Brad Pitt and Morgan Freeman, is Fincher's most successful but is not a story he wants to return to.

"I have less interest in that than having cigarettes put out in my eyes," he told an audience at a Film Society of Lincoln Centre discussion.

Fincher also spoke about new film The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button, for which he reunited with Pitt, saying that its meaning has been misinterpreted by some.

"It's funny, but when we first showed this movie to people, they thought we were showing how these people were fated to be in love. That was the antithesis of what we were trying to do. I was trying to illustrate that youth is not wasted on the young," he said.
